CDNN has good to very good for $300

Wideners has fair to good for $275. The ones I got from them already will require new grips at about $20 each. Other than that, the frames appeared in very good condition. Maybe they just rate theirs harder, or rate down for damaged grips??

Anyone else want to share their experiences from either of these companies with the 5906s they got?
 
I am also interested in knowing. Anyone have pictures of any cdnn purchased 5906s?
Are they LE marked?
 
I would be very interested in seeing some pics of an example from wideners.

Can anyone give any info on a "fair" firearm received from wideners?
 
I bought 2 from cdnn and both overall good except one had some strike marks on the back sight. Not really as bad as I first reaction but I was not pleased and they were like sorry, as is.

Both shoot very well.
 
CDNN

I have done no business with Weidners, may be good folks.

Steve with CDNN has always been great to work with. Fast shipping, good customer service.
 
my CDNN 5906 is pretty much new. very lightly used inside and out, came with nice comfy hogue grips on it too. has never malfunctioned.

the 5906, from any source, is an example of "they don't make 'em like they used to."
 
I recently purchased two CDNN 5906s in "select" condition for $330 plus shipping. I was very disappointed in the condition. One had very deep pitting under the grips. I wasn't expecting anything great but these were filthy and well worn. They were what I'd expect of the $275 guns from Wideners. It's not worth the expense to eat shipping costs for both ways plus the transfer fee. You may get lucky but I'm not going to gamble on any more CDNN police trade-in guns.
 
Got one of the CDNN ones last year. Was pretty dirty when it came in, but after a good cleaning it looks new. No major marks or scratches. The grips were in bad shape and I replaced them. Inside looked basically unfired
